I looked at so many resumes and I was astonished at the sheer amount of people who put &quot;personal goals&quot; and &quot;objectives&quot; on there. I just want to see people&#39;s experiences--I usually don&#39;t even care about where they went to school or their GPA. Work experience is the most valuable way to get a job in my field. </p>Travis commented on 'Nine Resume Killers'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451bcbd69e201b8d260ba01970c2017-02-15T19:02:49Z2017-02-18T13:33:38ZTravisBuzzwords is a tough one to have a blanket "no" on.

As a job seeker it&#39;s tough if you&#39;re applying via an online or electronic system because so many of these now use a keyword algorithm and auto-reject if it doesn&#39;t match up and meet the specified criteria. </p>
<p>Of course a warm contact inside to help with the application is always preferred there are times this doesn&#39;t happen. Additionally there are also times where you still have to put it through the online system and hope that someone can manually check and pull it if it doesn&#39;t go through.</p>
